en the place, many of the hogs being
mussed In pens, and that the near
et running water was a mile and
halt away, up hill.
When he resumed his testimony
this morning, he said he told Kuehne,
when they were talking about water
for the'hocs. that he would have to
let some barrels and go off the place
for water. While at breakfast on
the fatal morning, Hunter, aays Law
rea.ee came over from his cabin. It
etag the Intention, of Lawrence and
Hunter to come to Klamath Fails to
confer with an attorney and the pros
ecutlng Attorney regarding the situa
tion at the ranch. Mr. and Mrs.
Richardson, he said, were to stay with
Mrs. Hunter at the ranch during their
absence.
After breakfast. Hunter said he
started with the team, wagon and
Barrels to get water, driving, to the
Anderson ranch," a mile and a quar
ter away. This ranch, and the road
to it, he said, is In plain view from
the living room of the ranch house.
Owing to' Inability to repair the An
derson windmill, Hunter says he
drove on to the Van Meter ranch to
get water, being away from the
Kuehne-Lawrence ranch about an
hour and a half.
As he was returning, Hunter said
he saw Kuehne walking around the
ranch house. Owing to the fact that
the cover was loose on one of the
barrels, and he divided hi attention
between holding the Hd on this to
prevent the water from splashing out,
and driving the team, he did not pay
very much attention to Kuehne.
Hunter says that as he approached
he saw Mrs. Kuehne standing at the
Irst gate, or one north and west of
the house, with a gun in her hand,
and Kuehne near the second gate, or
or directly in front of the house, with
two guns. Hunter said he did not
